Abstract
A water-removing ring made of heat conductive materials and set on an edge of an oil-cooking utensil including a cylindrical contact part that comes into contact with the inner surface of the cooking utensil and a projecting part extending horizontally and inwardly from the inner surface of the cylindrical contact part and having a plurality of grooves so that evaporated moister is collected on the projecting part and then evaporated again.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedI claim:
1. A water-removing ring for an oil cooking vessel, said ring being removably anchored to a lid-receiving part of a main body of said vessel, characterized in that said water-removing ring is constructed from a multi-layer metal material and consists of a cylindrical contact part, which contacts an interior surface of said main body of said vessel, and a projecting part, which is continuous to said contact part and projects toward a center of said main body of said vessel, said contact part extending above and below said projecting part so that a sufficient contact length is insured, and said projecting part extends substantially horizontally and has an upwardly inclined part on an inner edge of said projecting part.
2. A water-removing ring according to claim 1, further comprising a plurality of independent grooves formed in an upper surface of said projecting part.
3. A water-removing ring removably provided on an edge of a cooking vessel, said ring comprising: a cylindrical contact part in contact with an inner surface of said cooking vessel; and a ring shape, projecting part extending inwardly from an inner surface of said cylindrical contact part, said projecting part being substantially horizontal with an inner edge of said projecting part bent upwardly.
4. A water-removing ring according to claim 3, wherein said cylindrical contact part and said ring shape projecting part are made of heat conductive materials.
5. A water-removing ring according to claim 4, further comprising a plurality of grooves formed on an upper surface of said projecting part.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
